The mounted combat rules in 3.5 are a bit of a joke because horses don't fit in a dungeon. To my understanding you can absolute zigzag back and forth with a charge every round. Don't forget the horse gets to make an attack as well.

He’s not wrong. Every time I come across a Christian honor killing in the news it’s done by an Arab Christian, never (rarely?) a white Christian. How one acts in religion is genetic, which comes before culture. Nature comes before nurture. You can’t teach fungus to do math.

Depends on your biological classification, all of those animals if I remember correctly are deuterostomes, organisms where the blastopores develop into the anus hole first during embryonic development before developing the mouth or feeding hole.

And given enough time, all mammals would mustelidise (evolve to be more weasel and Mustelidae like) before diverging again or hyper specialize towards a particular ecological niche and then go extinct as environmental and geological changes causes said niche to disappear.

I can't be bothered to read the entire context of the conversation, but this is the worst possible example you could have made.
Fungi (specifically slime molds and mycelial networks) can solve complex geometric and computational problems.

I see.
Legitimately interesting.

My setting doesn't really allow for easy settlement of non-defensible locations. So every settlement is pretty heavily fortified due to the threat of monsters.
So no equivalent to plains people. There are a few nomadic groups, but those nomadic groups prefer areas with natural defenses, hiding spots, and cover and tend to avoid open plains.

Open plains tends to equal very big monsters.
Also the reason people avoid deserts in my world unless they are intentionally hunting monsters. More open space means monsters are free to get bigger.
Less open space means they are constricted in size. It's why ironically monsters in dungeons are significantly easier to deal with, at least individually, than monsters of the wilds.

This is a bit oversimplified and pushes those ideas much further than most scholars would. However, it is true that people with something to lose (but not fully secure) tend to be more concerned with appearances and norms. Teachers, managers, merchants, yeomen, shopkeepers, craftsment, bureaucrats, media professionals help define “acceptable behavior.” Groups try to signal morality, discipline, and refinement to gain or protect status.

It is however simply not true that they are all sexism, racism, puritanism and morality come from the middle class. More accurate is to say that classes in the middle of the hierarchy often experience strong Status Anxiety, which can lead them to emphasize norms, respectability, and moral behavior as ways of maintaining or improving their social position than other classes would Everyone performs; just differently.

>Elites perform through:
Signal status through effortless distinction: Exclusive tastes, etiquette, education (think “old money culture”). Can break rules without losing status.

>Middle classes perform through:
Signal status through visible correctness: Gatekeepers of "Good behavior,” politeness, following social rules. Buying things that signal taste and upward mobility (not necessarily luxury, but the right kind of lifestyle).

>Working classes perform through:
Often signal through authenticity, resilience, or group loyalty: Toughness, authenticity, community identity.

/TG/ DEVELOPED A GAME
IT IS PLAYABLE. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED.
EXPEDITION is a ~1880s era, Jules Verne-inspired retro-futurist, underground blood soaked adventurescape.
It is a Skirmish wargame. Two players with their own expeditions, on a hexgrid map, explore & fight each other for victory and profit.

3 versions of the rules exist, 2 of which have been playtested. The main one is 2e, to be found :

>we let L.N.B get away with it too
I actually suggest letting him die and replacing him with his son, Eugene L.N.B., who'd be the exact same unit, but keeping all the lore - Charles' story happened, he met Akamnandag etc. and on the meta level we could say he was playable in an early edition. Emperor or not, this man fucked, he'd make a heir eventually.
For simplicity's sake we could use actual Eugene as base, regardless of whom Charles is likely to marry in this timeline. He'd be using his military career to build up clout and political support and basically become a mixture of his own father and Boulanger OTL.

Welcome to /2eg/, a thread dedicated to all things 2nd Edition D&D related - including settings, lore, modules, and derived systems (Alternity, Buck Rogers XXVc, For Gold and Glory, Hackmaster, Myth and Magic, and more).

Since 2e draws heavily from earlier editions, older modules are welcome too. Other media derived from AD&D (such as Infinity Engine video games) also has a home here.

It's what you play, not how you play it. RAW or homebrew, as long as your table is having fun, there's no wrong way to play.

There's a surprisingly complete 2e fan wiki for rules stuff, it's excellent for quick reference:

"Nothing good" my sire says:
-Werewolves are holed up in the north end.
-There are some Anarchs in St. Vital who oppose the Sabbat so they've been killing each-other on the south end of the city. The Baron goes by "Trelaine" and I think he's a Toreador.
-Camarilla from Alberta are trying to move in downtown but they've lost a lot of people to the Sabbat and the werewolves. Some Ventrue leading them, sire didn't catch her name.
-Sabbat almost everywhere else, no idea who leads them. Now that they're fighting a two-front war the sabbat needs more recruits who aren't shovelheads and they've apparently tried to recruit my sire (and by extension me) through familial clan ties. My sire has no interest in anything other than their own metamorphosis and vicissitude research however. I think their command center has moved to St. Boniface from downtown, since they got pushed out by the Cammies.

Would allowing the players to have a paper and pencil to do calculations or take notes reduce the amount of time that players take on thinking? Would it increase the level of play? Would it lead to more draws?

Impossible at this level, they maxed out already.
>>
>>97832596
My thought is that it would probably reduce thinking time. My IQ is 80, so it might just be me, but I think Hikaru would have done a bit better if he just wrote down all the possible moves and the different branches that could arise from them. Just to organize his thoughts, you know? It could have reduced his thinking time.

Pigheaded Edition

>What is Trench Crusade?
An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, and it's very Blanchitsu.

>What's the QRD on the background?
The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.

>How do I get started?

They used to be split between the website and the discord, but no more. For posterity's sake, the old mega will still be kept active even if it's unlikely to need updating: https://mega.nz/folder/70QH0BBa#Eg-blxYQKkY_C02wErnFTQ

OK, ignoring the legitimate love I have for my family you still lose. Meaning raising an infant/toddler/kid/teen is admittedly tough, but much more enjoyable than it is tough. That's why you exist retard-kun
In 50 years my kid(s?) will have kids of his/(her maybe) own and maybe even grandkids that I'll teach and nurture in this hobby. In 50 years you'll be dead or dying and your posts in a Tibetan knitting forum archive will be all you can contribute to the hobby.
Ever heard the phrase 'the winners write history'?

Damn it.
I'm this anon, and that was way more aggressive that I want to be. I know how the chans work, I've been here for longer than you'd think. I just woke up one day and realized being happy meant more than 'winning' threads to me. So I pushed myself and lost a couple times til I won. To the poster thinking all women are trash, they really aren't. The single ones are in a mindset surprisingly similar to you, wanting to win an argument (thread) more than they want longterm happiness. Both of you are wrong, but if I can't persuade (you) of that I'll just slip into the background of tcg.
It sucks half the posts here seem to hate the game or are trying to slide it, I just thought Franchina art was sick long before the game came around and wanted to support a game based on it. Wish we had IP counters back, that would fix so much
If you like the game and want to reply to me, try and post cool iron sultanate art or a model that could be made out of with ork bits, I still want to build at least 1 cool custom model

Is there ANY miniature wargame that isn't insanely expensive? I'm talking about things you can buy in a box and play immediately, not "print your own minis" bullshit or things where you're forced to use proxies cause official models don't exist.

>a dice-less wargame
neat.
>>
>>97810889
the trick is to avoid games with enforced monopolies. if they're just using their rules as a way to get you to buy the official minis, you are going to have a shitty time. fortunately that only describes like 20% of the hobby. it's the most visible 20% because they advertise and shill like crazy, but it's not all there is.

once you get out of that bubble playing minis games becomes very affordable. most skirmish games can be played under $40 per army. some shit like gaslands or brikwars can be played for almost nothing.

>Of the Cloaans, only Mega and Best-Lock will actually have minifig accessories, and one of the reasons I prefer 2010 is that Construction Points allow you to stat up things that are NOT Minifigures.
Is that not covered in the 2020 MOC creature rules?

at this point i think we should stay on topic.
This is GW, GW is doing this and it is a BRITISH company.
England is unfree and gay, i don't know why you'd go out of your way to defend especially because i think it effects the end result.

I never realized how many players suffer from aphantasia and insist on using miniatures. Are you one of them, or do you embrace the unmatchable graphics of theater of the mind?

Not really. I'm kind of average-to-above-average intelligence but based on talking to other people my internal sensations are far more vivid and detailed than most people.

If we're basing the idea that someone's mentally better than others based on what kind of sensations someone can experience in their brains than I regret to inform you that most of you aren't actually human.

But thankfully, that's kind of nonsense. Internal sensation is kind of a grab back based on a bunch of inscrutable factors.

>>97832445
Problem with your theory, dumbass. I don't have aphantasia. I can picture everything fine. The problem is that when you boil it down, all of you are playing in featureless rooms with furniture and corners that you spawn and despawn at will.

Either I missed the meeting where we all agreed that tabletop games are the world's shittest mental gmod server of you're all cheating.

>Lot of assuming about motives.
What did you expect from bringing it up explicitly as part of a highly emotionally charged railing against theater-of-the-mind with no alternative purpose offered? That the response would be accurate mind-reading of it being in a previously entirely unmentioned context?

>But your visceral reaction to the idea that someone would actually keep track of what you're doing shows me what I need to know.
No, my first post in this thread was >>97832187 in which I specifically mention the inability to maintain relative positions. The underlying point still stands, because you cited it as how you know. That statement entails that you didn't know before to full confidence, and by extension that you did not have enough confidence in your own mental model of the game-state for their divergence from it alone to result in calling out the inaccuracy.

>>97832454
How many tasks depend strongly on the ability to internally synthesize novel visual states? Even in outright artwork there's successful people with aphantasia, so I've some doubts about this qualifying for "retardation".

>with no alternative purpose offered?
I mean, the alternative is implicit but because you're a cheater who's upset at getting caught out, you're acting in bad faith.

That or you're a moron.

So in either case, I'll spell it out for you. The answer is a representational diagram. If you're playing Dungeons and Dragons specifically, this really should be a grid of 1 inch squares, since that's what the rules are based around. For other tabletop games where movement isn't as rigid and things are a bit more vague, I simple diagram consisting of a few stand in objects works, so long as everyone agrees what each object is representative of.

A couple of dice that aren't being rolled and a sheet of paper for terrain makes for a quick and easy way to make sure everyone is on the same page regarding things like relative position and what the area looks like.

But please, keep crashing out about it. You're really helping the argument that you're all seriously interested in the theater of the mind and aren't just cheating.

...The alternative PURPOSE of WHY YOU WERE TAKING NOTES, not alternative to theater of the mind. If your reading comprehension is this bad, I can only assume you to be massively inflating your own spatial reasoning competence out of a horrendous case of the Dunning-Kreuger Effect.

The fight did a really good job at making us think Erika would get the final battle. Actually looked like the universe was done with Akina's bullshit
